The freshest kicks
You cant help but adore
The limited edition Nikes
From the city outlet store

Youth trying to adopt a 'fashion sense
And sneaker heads trying to up their game
200 dollar logo printed material
Logically speaking its pretty lame

'Dude they're fresh!' is all you gain
Money wasted on an individual's taste
The brand new smell demolished by dirt
A rip off from a brands copy and paste

So what is all this commotion about
A society judging on what they see
Tell yourself 'who cares about what they think'
As long as they get me from point A to B
